8.6

Second run in my new gloves was 8.6.

Mental notes - 9:30 to the trail head
34:00 to First Water (9:30 minutes faster since my times have been 34:00 from Mira Monte).
Continue up to Orchard 1:16:33
Down 49:28
8.6 miles = 2:06:01
Lets see what I can shave off on race day... no dogs, no hikers, no trekking poles.

Ropes

First Water - 34:19 (less the time the two
hikers stopped me to ask if I was training for a race and wanted to know more about the Mt Wilson race. Approx 2 min.)
Ropes - 42:18
Down - 24:04
